    I just saw a tweet from Mark Hamill saying to avoid it.

    Hmm, trying to think what in that trailer they felt was spoilerish. Have a couple of ideas i guess.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    The director had his comments widely misconstrued. He responded to a question if you want to walk into the theater totally clean, meaning not knowing ANYTHING, then avoid the trailer. But he also said the trailer was very good. He didn't tell anyone not to watch the trailer and he didn't express any anger or disappointment with the studio.

    For what it's worth...I think the trailer features a lot of misdirection. Scenes are cut together to look like they are happening together when they really aren't. Kylo in his fighter/Leia on the bridge and Rey/Kylo at the end in particular look like they are happening at different points of the film.

    HAHAHA!!!! Yes! What if the Skywalker/Jedi/Rebellion was just a subplot for a hidden storyline that ends up having it all about Jar Jar in the end?

    That's exactly what I thought.  Clips of different scenes edited together to give a misleading impression of continuity.

    A buddy of mine lives a couple blocks away from the Alamo Drafthouse in Winchester.  He got tickets for a bunch of us last night by going straight to the box office in person. Commemorative pint glasses, too, of course!

    That's awesome! I had no idea tickets were supposed to go on sale yesterday after the trailer. Around 7pm I saw it mentioned on Twitter. I immediately looked online and AMC had them up early. Scored a pair for 8pm on Thursday 12/14! Cannot wait for this.
